Yeah - It's a little disappointing for sure but not the end of the world.
I had assumed that the A91 would have included all the premium features along with the added fluff of carbon bits, blue stitching, and faux suede seats? It is kinda a bummer....wonder what else was excluded???

From the list that's it, like I said a bit odd, means they had to use a non premium 3.0 dash, whish is even more weird - why not just use the prem dash since the blue stitching isn't on it? Least we get those sport pedals :rolleyes1:

Confirmed that there is no HUD. No biggie if it means it's added weight savings (along with the Alcantara seats). Lol.

Delivery is near complete and my son and I are excited for the drive home.

Congrats! Can you take a picture of where the HUD would be - just curious if it's a small removable part or the whole dash.

Just talked to the dealer. The HUD itself cast $3300, than you need a new dashboard cost about $1700 and other bunch wiring. Labor about 5 to 6 hours. not finish yet! ... Wait for it ... there’s no guarantee it will work!!!

You can find the hud much cheaper, working on finding from bimmercode etc if there's any way to enable it if it's disabled. There's only one small cable to hud and I can't find a different harness so I think it may be on all cars.

why tf would toyota not include the heads up display for the a91... that was the sole reason I chose the supra instead of the m2. Well looks like I waited for nothing. HUD is kinda one of those things where once you have it, youre really going to miss it. Now i hate driving cars without one because you go from never looking down at the speedo to always keeping track of speed especially if the car picks up speed easily. And as far as i can tell the car itself is a cop magnet.

I guess now the question for me is whether to keep my order, switch to a premium (no more alcantara :(), or consider a stick m2 again.

The fact that A91 doesn't have a HUD while Premium does is so Toyota LOL. Man as a West Coast Canadian seeing you guys take deliveries makes me jealous.

on the BMW equivalents, the windshield is also different for hud vs non hud. We are talking about something like $10,000 to retro fit properly - i would NOT trust a dealership mechanic to pull glass

Just curious, are you guys getting your A91's at MSRP? One of the dealers here quoted me $5-10K above MSRP depending on the market rate when they get it in.
